★★★ Via ferrata delle Aquile C/D

The via ferrata delle aquile is a via ferrata that is located on the Cima Roda della Paganella in Trentino.

It is also dedicated to Carlo Alberto Banal and gives you the opportunity to enjoy the view of both the Adige valley and that of the Lakes as well as the Brenta Dolomites.

The route begins with the descent of the Cesare Battisti gully until it meets a stretch called "anthro delle pegore", then after a ledge, a traverse also known as " traversata degli angeli" (angels' traverse) which, on display, circumvents a complex edge to be circumvented. Almost immediately afterwards, a slightly less complex descent begins. The descent continues almost vertically until you reach the so-called "conca d'oro" from where a long traverse begins, alternating exposed and more comfortable stretches of ledge, until you reach the "cengia Terlago". The route continues for about ten meters while a view opens over the valley of the lakes connected to the valley of the Adige.

After a short descent and a subsequent traverse, you reach the first Tibetan bridge characterized by comfortable metal pedals to facilitate the passage. After that, you have to cross a smooth spur of rock to reach the panoramic point called "dos de la merenda". From here the second Tibetan bridge starts or, alternatively, it can be avoided by descending along the opposite side. Here we are almost towards the end of the via ferrata, where there is the book of the summit but this is not yet finished; there is one last long vertical corner missing. Climbing it up again using some rock handholds and some metal brackets you arrive at the "edge of the wind" and from here in a short time you arrive at the "throne of the eagle", the end of the road.
